Chapter 142 [Drainage Hole] (Part 2)

No one expected that the water flow would rush out from above, and the turbulent water flow rushed on the sparrow's body. The sparrow exclaimed and fell from the platform. In the crisis, Luo Lie grabbed her arm and grabbed the other hand on the ear of the tripod. Although Lu Weilin and the blind man were also impacted by the water flow, they were all the superior in weight and grabbed the edge of the copper tripod in time. They were unable to open their eyes by the water flow, and they had no idea of ​​the situation of the sparrow.

The strength of the water flow was slightly weakened, and Luo Lie breathed a sigh of relief and was about to pull the sparrow back to him, but another strong current of water rushed down from above, but this time it was aimed at Luo Lie. Luo Lie used all his strength to grasp the tripod ear tightly. Unfortunately, the tripod ear had been severely rusted over the years, and could not bear the pulling force of Luo Lie and broke from it.

Luo Lie felt his arm suddenly loose, and then he was washed down by the torrent. He fell into the water before he could turn around, and was carried downward by the turbulent water flow.

The blind man and Lu Weilin were washed into a rooster by the water flow falling from the sky. The two water columns that fell one after another were one meter in thickness, rushing down from about ten meters above, with a huge impact. Not to mention seeing the changes around, even breathing and gasping became extremely difficult. Being in it, they were almost suffocating. They both grabbed the edge of the copper tripod with their legs wrapped around the feet of the copper tripod in the shape of an old tree. They finally resisted the two domineering streams.

The water flow gradually weakened, and Zhang Changgong and Arnold's concern came from the wellhead.

The blind man's vision recovered before his hearing. He first discovered that Luo Lie and Sparrow had disappeared from the platform. He looked down and saw that the water surface below was about five meters away from the soles of their feet. The water surface splashed because of the water flow that had not stopped falling above. However, the blind man quickly confirmed that there was no shadow of the two people on the water surface.

Lu Weilin wiped away the water stains on his face, looked up, and found that the dragon head part of the second dragon playing with the pearl was protruding outward, and water continued to gush out from the dragon head, which was much weaker than just now. After a moment of thinking, he realized that the iron ball he had put into the toad's mouth must have touched the mechanism, and the two long dragons had hidden flood discharge channels in the mouths.

After the iron ball entered the toad's mouth, it triggered the mechanism and opened the flood discharge channel, and two streams of water just now generated. At this time, he understood why he used iron chains to tie the iron ball. If the iron ball was placed into the toad's mouth with bare hands, then the people on the platform would have nowhere to hide when the torrent came.

The blind man grabbed the broken tripod ear with both hands and wailed: "Luo Lie, Luo Lie and the others fell!"

Lu Weilin nodded, and he was also worried, but the length of their rope could not reach the water surface below. If they went down blindly to save people, it was very likely that not only would they fail to save people, but more people would also fall into trouble.

The blind man gritted his teeth, and instantly made up his mind and shouted upwards: "You throw a rope down, I'll go down to find someone." He and Luo Lie were brothers and sisters. When something happened to Luo Lie, he would go down to save people even if he fought his life.

Lu Weilin looked at the blind man in surprise. In his impression, the blind man has always been greedy for life and fear of death, and is lustful, but such a person is willing to take risks for Luo Lie without hesitation. This made Lu Weilin not only see the hidden courage of the blind man, but also see Luo Lie's personal charm. A person who can make his friends sacrifice his life must have something unique.

Zhang Changgong and Arnau had already known that something had happened below when the flood discharge channel spewed out of the flood. They were sure that Luo Lie and Sparrow had been washed away by the water and had nowhere to be known. Zhang Changgong said to Arnau: "I'll go down."

But Arnold shook his head: "I'd better go down, you can't water."

Although Zhang Changgong is very skilled in martial arts, he is not good at hunting in the mountains and forests, so entering the well is extremely risky for him.

Zhang Changgong wanted to persist, so Arnold patted his shoulder and said, "You can only support him. If there is anything, I can't stand it." What he said was the truth. Although the gate of Zhengjue Temple was closed, no one knew what would happen in the future. If an enemy was found, several people underground would be in danger. Therefore, Zhang Changgong, who has the highest martial arts skills, stayed on it and sat on it.

When Zhang Changgong heard him say this, he stopped insisting and said in a deep voice: "Bring more ammunition."

Not only did Arnold bring ammunition, but he also brought a lifebuoy. When he slid down the platform along the rope, the blind man's throat was already a little hoarse, but he still didn't hear any reaction.

Lu Weilin was about to stop and asked them to wait on the platform first and go down to see the situation. They tied the ropes brought by Arnold to the bronze cauldron, be sure that the bond was strong, and let the blind man and Arnold grab the ropes and provide double insurance. After all, this bronze cauldron has already had a precedent for breaking. If the tripod ears were not broken, Luo Lie and Sparrow would not have been washed into the well by the torrent.

Lu Weilin slowly slid down the rope. Compared to the unknown underground, he was more worried about the water snakes. The beam of the flashlight shone on the water surface below. At this time, the two water flows above had gradually stopped and the water surface gradually calmed down, but there were still more than a dozen water snakes swimming back and forth.

An arc-shaped gap was exposed at the edge of the water surface, and the water flow was constantly flowing into the gap. Because the water flow was turbulent, a vortex formed at the point where it entered the gap. Lu Weilin carefully observed the gap and was sure that there should be a water hole hidden here. He told his companions about this discovery.

As the water surface drops, the hole will gradually appear. From what we see now, the hole hidden under the water surface connects a flood discharge channel outside the shadow. Luoli and sparrow should have been washed down by the torrent just now, and then entered this channel with the undercurrent at the bottom of the water.

After learning about the situation, the blind man reminded Lu Weilin not to take risks for the time being, because the water surface is constantly falling, and the water snake also stays away. When the hole is exposed, it will become safer to enter it.

They originally expected that the water surface would land at the lower edge of the cave entrance in at most twenty minutes. They could enter the cave entrance to find people, but when the cave entrance was just one-third, it started to rain in the sky. The rain fell from the wellhead, which was not the main problem. The flood discharge channel hidden in the two dragons began to gush downwards. After the water source continued to inject, the water surface below had stopped and continued to decline.

The blind man sighed secretly that he didn't know when the rain would fall. Although Zhang Changgong temporarily blocked the wellhead, they could not block the internal flood discharge mouth and could not stop the water surface in the well. The blind man asked Arnold to guard the copper cauldron and slide down along the rope.

Seeing him coming, Lu Weilin shouted: "The water surface has stopped falling, and now it seems that it has begun to rise." His voice kept echoing in the open well.

The blind man looked up and saw that the water flow from the two faucets was getting heavier and heavier. The rain outside kept falling, and the rainwater gathered into the flood discharge channel, and then was discharged through the two faucets. The blind man looked at the part of the flood discharge channel that exposed one-third of the water surface. The diameter of the cave entrance should be at least about two meters. It won't take too long to flood the entire flood discharge channel. When the heavy rain stopped and the water level dropped, the flood discharge channel would be exposed again.

Lu Weilin said: "Blind, I think we should go up first and wait until the water recedes before looking for them." Lu Weilin believed that Luo Lie and Sparrow were rushed into the flood discharge channel by undercurrents. Their lives and deaths were uncertain. As friends, they should try their best to rescue them. They should not be blind in everything. They must wait until the time is ripe. Lu Weilin pointed to the platform above and signaled the blind to climb up and rest for a while before talking.

The blind man nodded, and Lu Weilin crawled up first, but suddenly he heard a thud. He was startled and looked down, but he saw that the blind man had jumped into the water without hesitation.

In the eyes of the blind man, there are floods coming in now. If the flood discharge channel is flooded, they will not be able to enter it to rescue them in a short time. Time is life. Maybe Luo Lie and the sparrow have been injured. If they find them a moment ago, they will have a little hope of life.

The blind man mustered up the courage to jump into the water, waved his arms and wanted to swim hard to swim towards the entrance of the flood drainage cave. Before he could adapt to the environment in the water, a undercurrent led him to rush into the flood drainage cave. The blind man screamed, and then his fat body was instantly sucked in and disappeared into the entrance of the cave as if he had encountered an irresistible suction force.

Lu Weilin roared at the blind man, but his trace was lost in the water surface under the well. For a moment, Lu Weilin's heart was ups and downs. The blind man who had been afraid of death in his heart showed the courage to live and die with his friends. It shocked him and also made him feel ashamed. For a moment, Lu Weilin's blood was pouring up, and he almost jumped into the water with the blind man, but at the last moment he did not lose his mind, because he knew that even if everyone jumped down, it would be useless.

If it weren't for the superman's first-class calmness, Lu Weilin wouldn't have grown into a top killer. He was not afraid of death, but could not die in vain.

Not everyone has the same rationality as Lu Weilin. Arnold unscrewed his stainless steel wine pot, gulped a few times in succession, then threw the wine pot, brought two lifebuoys, and shouted: "Blind, I'll do it!" One man stabbed him down. If the blind man mustered up all his courage, Arnold had seven points of courage and three points of alcohol. If this pot of wine was not at the bottom, he would not have made up his mind.

Lu Weilin actually jumped down when he saw that Arnold had also jumped. These two people were usually a pair of lively treasures. Although they were reckless and impulsive in doing things, they could see their friendship with Luo Lie from this incident. Lu Weilin admired their courage and admired Luo Lie's character. If it was him who was washed away by the water, the blind man and Arnold should not sacrifice themselves to save him.
